  1. Rivian Not Cutting It - In Depth

    the first 5 minutes are bashing other youtube channels, car manufacturers, and all sorts of things, and nothing about Rivian. Pass, I have better things to do with my life than listen to this. If car people were as vindictive as they say, Kyle over at Out of Spec would never get cars, he...
  2. Elon Musk says that Lucid and Rivian are tracking toward bankruptcy

    We sold our model X early because of his antics, I figured I'll take advantage of the fact I'm not doing anything and it's worth a lot. The recent price increases have made sure I'll never buy another one, $120k for the same vehicle new is nuts. It was barely worth the $89k I paid for it.
  3. R1S updated estimated delivery window email (received June 11)

    Well considering I have a generic 2H23 from the original pre-order in October 2021 I'm adding at least a year to that, and ordered a Land Rover Defender 110 because I'm not waiting any longer without something we can go camping with. Been waiting too long already, 5 years of wasted time and...
  4. OutofSpec Kyle: ‘The Oddest Charging Station I’ve Ever Been To’

    Meth is a helluva drug in small town America, or oxy, it's really gotten worse. Sure there are bad Walmarts too but lots of areas are pretty bad, especially when the Sherriff/police are an hour away. So are a pack of coyotes, too. too many people tossing trash/food out while boondocking and...
  5. Excess condensation on windshield

    I mean to be fair, just about any car does this in high humidity when the cold air hits the windshield and the dew point happens, was going on in my Polestar 2 yesterday just after a heavy rain/hot day/high humidity. Windshield wipers get rid of it. Unless there is something messed up with...
  6. OutofSpec Kyle Gets His R1T - Rivian Factory Delivery Video

    The only reason that I care that he got one early is because Rivian made a corporate decisions to do it, but Rivian should have owned the reason why they did it. They should have given him full access, interviews, talk about what they were surprised that he found/said, and how they've made...
  7. Don't hate me cause I'm an Idiot.

    Polestar 2 Single Motor models, nice sedan shape, 0-60 isn't get son in trouble speed Pro you can find some 'pre configured' models at the port and have them sent to your nearest polestar space and be in one rather quickly Con: not a lot of polestar spaces to pick up from, depending on where...
  8. Rural Charging Question

    it should just at a lower rate of charge. But otherwise it should work, though that is 120v/30A, and I don't think you can pull more than 15A on 120v normally. I will say that some of those camp sites aren't the best electrically and can make the mobile charger angry. Back in the early days...
  9. VW Bringing Back "Scout" Competitor for Rivian

    more the merrier, which makes it amusing to read the stock subforum with all the doom and gloom, we got brands being resurrected to compete with a doomed company :D
  10. Saw my yet to be delivered truck on YT just now

    yeah i'd be on the phone with the guide. Especially if you have signed paperwork of mileage. Why the fear of sharing the VIN? just curious, it's not like you can get a loan with a VIN or nothing, it's easier to find your deets other ways anyway.
  11. Canoo Truck/Van

    i love em, i'm worried they won't survive, would be a great boon to have the plants in AR and OK in raising the standard of living there too, really would like them to succeed.
  12. Can a garage floor support 2 Rivians?

    it's not the weight of the vehicle, but the distribution on the wheels that you worry about. Concrete is usually rated at compression strength in PSI, and 3500 or so is about what you get out of 4" concrete which is what most homes made in the last 40 years have. If you really want to figure...
  13. Public chargers

    30A should be 7,200kW. There's not 'about' really, it's that. Tesla charger would be 9,600 if it's drawing 40A. Tesla's onboard chargers peak out at 48A max (11,520), unless you have an older X they had a 72A onboard charger, not sure about the S. Anything recent though the switched to 48A max...
  14. Current Tesla Owners: Moving to Rivian

    The 75kWh battery in the model x is notorious for being inefficient. Even when they updated it to the 'standard' with the raven update it didn't last much longer, i got one of the last of those.
  15. North Carolina (Raleigh) Rivian Fans

    My Sister-in-Law and her family are moving to Greenville, would very much like a fast charger there, just far enough from Raleigh to be annoying.
  16. Delayed Rivian Refunds

    my R1S refund came about two weeks later to the card I used. Though my res wasn't that old, so my card hadn't changed.
  17. Standby test for parasitic loss while R1T unused and unplugged

    even without sentry mode on I lose several percentage points each day. Per the utilities I have I've lost 2.66 kWh today alone and sentry mode/overheat protection is off.
  18. First Mile Event Richmond VA now live!

    nothing yet, but not an LE holder. I'm 2h9m away. but as I like to say when the GPS tells me it'll take that long, challenge accepted :D
  19. Cancelled Order Restored

    Not that I've seen. I've reached out a while back and they said that they would reinstate it, so I'm not overly worried.
